Aftermarket seat for XJ1100

[madmax-im]

I am wondering if anybody has an aftermarket seat for the '82 XJ1100 Maxim?I'm looking to buy if there is one forsale.I am hoping to avoid buying new,but the used seat should be in good condition with no rips or tears in the material.Anyone?

Ben, maybe Spencer or Sargent could do something with yours. As you know, Spencer is the affordable method of choice for making the ST seat right. I had Sargent refoam and recover (my design, although they have their own design for the XS) my XS. Much improved...

Dean...i hadn't thought of Spencer...I'm kinda doubful he'd do this but ya never know.As for Sargent,trying to avoid spending $300 bucks although their work is very good indeed.

In checking this site out..it appears they only do recovering of the seats.So I have emailed Spencers in FLA.This gentleman is an expert in rebuilding seats primarily for the Honda ST1100s' and ST1300s' but he does other makes as well.And I might add rather inexpensively so awaiting a response from him.Other than that it looks like Sargent or Diamond seats...and I know that will run into some big bucks.That is why I am asking if any members here have a used aftermarket seat forsale?

I'd be interested in whether or not Spencer would tackle this Ben. I suspect quite a few XS/XJ guys would potentially be interested, although I don't believe he does any recovering. Only his magic foam upgrade.

Rest assured if Spencers can do this I'll let y'all know...its not like he does have anything to do thoughHis prices would be welcomed here for sure...not to mention the quality of workmanship that you and I already know about. He will reuse the old cover and reinstall it if its in good shape...mine has one small tear less than 1"...He'll problably get back to me tmrw...he is very busy but he always answers his emails promptly.Lets keep our fingers crossed!!!

ebay has new seat covers... stock for 39 and a flame one for 89 or 59???

Hmm I'll check on ebay...I'm having Spencers seat mods done to my stock Maxim seat but he doesnt do recovering.I should have the seat back this coming Mon.
It only cost me $75 to reshape and add new foam...well worth it.If anyone is interested in Spencers...look for a thread I started "A Great Day To Ride" in it is all the contact info to his website...y'all take care and ride safe
